Drug and layered silicate composite with improved oral bioavailability, oral pharmacological composition containing the composite and method for producing the composite
A drug and layered silicate composite is provided. The drug and layered silicate contains layered silicate powders and a drug compound bound to between layers of the silicate powders, wherein the drug compound is present in an amorphous state in the composite. Using such a composite may significantly improve absorption and bioavailability of a sorafenib compound.
1. A drug and layered silicate composite comprising: layered silicate powders comprising bentonite; and a drug compound bound to between layers of the silicate powders, wherein the drug compound is present in an amorphous state in the composite, wherein a weight of the bentonite is 3 to 5 times a weight of the drug compound, wherein the drug compound includes a sorafenib compound or a salt compound containing the sorafenib compound, wherein the drug and layered silicate composite has a greater release amount and release rate of the drug compound in pH 7.4 buffer than pH 1.2 aqueous solution, wherein the release amount of the drug compound is 2 times or more in the pH 7.4 buffer than in the pH 1.2 aqueous solution.
2. An oral pharmacological composition containing: drug and layered silicate composite powders, wherein the composite powders comprise: layered silicate powders comprising bentonite; and a drug compound bound to between layers of the silicate powders, wherein the drug compound is present in an amorphous state in the composite powders; and an additive to control uniform distribution of the composite powders in a gastrointestinal tract or to control a release rate of the drug compound in the gastrointestinal tract, wherein a weight of the bentonite is 3 to 5 times a weight of the drug compound, wherein the drug compound includes a sorafenib compound or a salt compound containing the sorafenib compound, wherein the drug and layered silicate composite has a greater release amount and release rate of the drug compound in pH 7.4 buffer than pH 1.2 aqueous solution, wherein the release amount of the drug compound is 2 times or more in the pH 7.4 buffer than in the pH 1.2 aqueous solution.
3. The oral pharmacological composition of claim 2 , wherein the composite powders are encapsulated in a hard capsule, wherein a disintegrant, an excipient, a release-sustaining agent or a lubricant is received in the capsule.
4. The oral pharmacological composition of claim 2 , wherein the additive includes at least one selected from a group consisting of polyethylene glycol, polyvinylpyrrolidone, Tween, poloxamer, Solutol HS15, phosphatidylcholine, hydroxypropylmethylcellulose, eudragit, lactose and sorbitol.
